Ren... I'll lose absolutely all respect for Kyouko if she falls for Shou... He treated her like trash, and quite frankly, even if he's "seeing her in a different light", he's still a jerk, and Kyouko knows it.
If Skip Beat! falls into the girl-falling-in-love-with-the-jerk-instead-of-the-decent-guy!cliche, any expectations I had of it being a breakthrough in shoujo manga will be destroyed, and besides, Ren still has that hidden past... So he might turn out to be quite the player, anyway... He *deserves* Kyouko, Shou deserves *nothing*, and for her to get back together with him would be truly masochistic, and since she's my favorite character (although Ren is getting pretty close as Kyouko is COMPLETELY DENSE about the fact he's in love with her) I definitely wouldn't want that.

I agree. If she goes back to Sho, she'd be a "weak" character and Kyoko is nowhere near that.
